JK! Games!

We’ve landed. In this episode of JK! Games! Book Club, we’ve officially completed our first checkpoint in Tears of the Kingdom — and Hyrule is opening it's butthole wide for us. We discuss reaching Lookout Landing, unlocking the Skyview Tower, getting the Paraglider, and choosing our first steps in the open world. We also share our reactions to returning characters like Purah and Robbie, how this sequel builds on Breath of the Wild, and what new mechanics and mysteries have already hooked us. This episode sets the stage for the real adventure ahead, and we announce next week’s checkpoint — tackling our first Regional Phenomena (Rito, Zora, Goron, or Gerudo). Pick your path and play along with us! Checkpoint just completed: Finish the Great Sky Island Reach Lookout Landing Unlock the Skyview Tower + Paraglider Talk to Purah and Robbie Next week’s checkpoints: 1.

JK! Games! is back—and we’re kicking things off with a brand-new format. In this episode, we officially launch our video game book club with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. We catch up after our podcast hiatus (and time spent deep in The Last of Us coverage over on ClickerBait), and share what this new chapter of JK! Games! is all about. We reflect on our personal history with the Zelda franchise, break down our first impressions of TOTK’s gameplay, powers, and early worldbuilding, and set our very first book club checkpoint so listeners can play along with us. This week’s checkpoint: Complete the Great Sky Island tutorial and reach Lookout Landing. Whether you’re revisiting Hyrule or jumping in for the first time, there’s a place for you in the JK! Games! Book Club. Join us every week as we play through one game at a time—together.

We’re Back! JK! Games! Returns with a New Format  After a 4-month break (thanks to our ClickerBait takeover 👀), we’re back with a brand new JK! Games! episode — and we’ve got some exciting updates to share. In this episode, we catch up on what we’ve been up to, talk about our time covering The Last of Us Season 2 on our podcast ClickerBait, and reveal the future of JK! Games!... We’re turning JK! Games! into a video game book club! That’s right — we’re still covering the news and reviews we care about, but the heart of the show will now center around one featured game at a time. Whether you’re playing along with us or revisiting an old favorite, this is your chance to join the conversation. We announced our first game this episode and shared our vision for how this new format will bring our community together to share thoughts, memories, and hot takes as we play through games together. 💬 Want to be part of the club?
